Running back available for recycling


Posted at 12:01 am by Doug Parry, Herald staff

Everyone was thinking globally and acting locally for Earth Day. The Seahawks used the occasion to get rid of their old gas-guzzler, sending Shaun Alexander packing.

For years, having Shaun on the Seahawks was like having a vintage Camaro -- the coolest car on the block. Sadly, just like an old Camaro, he hit a certain age and it started taking way too much oil and money to keep him going.

Now that Shaun is out of work, he can consult Eve Nicholas' column today on finding environmentally friendly jobs. Among her pearls of advice:

  • Capitalize on your transferable skills: Shaun has so much experience dancing around on his tiptoes, the Pacific Northwest Ballet is bound to come calling.

  • Make your transferable skills stand out on your resume: "Successfully created frequent game clock stoppages during pass attempts by seamlessly delivering football to ground."

    The Navy celebrated Earth Day with a dumpster diving event.

    You can imagine the sailors' surprise when they dove in and found Shaun Alexander in the trash heap.
